Violence erupted in Kansas City, San Antonio, and Honolulu, leaving at least 15 people injured, three listed in critical condition and six have been confirmed dead.
In Kansas City, Missouri, a shooting outside of a bar left 15 people injured, and two killed. An argument inside of a club in San Antonio, Texas resulted in two deaths, with five people injured, and a man in Honolulu killed his landlord before shooting two officers who arrived while he was being evicted.
Officers arrived at the 9ine Ultra Lounge before midnight on Sunday and immediately needed backup from the city after two people were found to have passed away after a gunman opened fire on a line of people waiting to enter the bar. 15 people are now being treated at area hospitals, with three of them listed in critical condition.
Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas praised the security guard who leapt into action and stopped the gunman. In a tweet, he said the guard, “appears to have kept the situation from being even worse.”
Two people passed away and five more were injured on Sunday night after an argument broke out inside of a club in San Antonio. The argument happened during a concert and ended when the gunman pulled out a weapon and started to aim at people inside.
Six people were transported to a local hospital, where one passed away shortly after arrival and another victim didn’t make it while still at the scene. The gunman is still on the loose.
A 69-year-old man, Jerry Hanel, attacked his landlady, Lois Cain, while in the process of being evicted from his home. When two officers arrived on the scene, Hanel started to fire at them. Both officers succumbed to their injuries after being taken to Queen’s Medical Center in critical condition.
Hanel then set fire to his own home, which resulted in seven other neighboring homes also catching ablaze. Coroners are still searching for Hanel’s body and two of his neighbors are reportedly missing.
